Verse Concepts
"You must no longer give straw to the people to make the bricks like {before}. Let them go and gather straw for themselves. But the quota of the bricks that they [were] making {before} {you must require of them}. You must not reduce from it, because they [are] lazy. Therefore they [are] crying out, saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'
And now go, work, but straw will not be given to you, and you must give the full quota of bricks."
